To all of you coaches. Lots of different things cause u not to be successful. Remember players play the game coaches prepare kids I didn’t score a point or get a rebound .I couldn’t be a doctor because I don’t understand medicine. You couldn’t be a. Fill in the blanks

Too all the players I recruited in my 20 years as assistant and the kids that we recruited in my 12 years ashead coach. Thanks you for being great kids. When coaches work you hard and make it tough on you hoping u will improve u don’t like it. When u look back your thankful.

Let me make one think clear to the fans who dislike a commentator because he says something critical of the team you support. I’ll go real slow an say it again Gary gives excellent insite into what’s happening and why it’s happening .why don’t you grow up an watch the game.
